Kimberly Boogaerts, LPC

Kimberly Boogaerts is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arkansas who brings a range of experience working with children, teens, and adults facing anxiety, trauma, family and relationship challenges, depression, and related concerns. She offers direct mental health and behavioral counseling informed by work in multiple clinical settings and with diverse age groups and backgrounds.

Her professional pathway began with a degree in elementary education and a minor in early childhood, and she went on to earn a master s degree to become an LPC in Texas. That blend of educational and clinical training supports her ability to connect with clients across developmental stages and life circumstances.

Kimberly s therapeutic approach is shaped by Gestalt principles, cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and structural systems perspectives. She emphasizes meeting clients where they are and tailoring treatment plans so interventions match individual needs and goals, whether the aim is insight and personal growth or symptom relief and improved functioning.

Kimberly frames therapy as a collaborative process in which clients draw on their own strengths. She offers encouragement and practical support to help people move toward a more fulfilling and manageable life.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Support

Kimberly commonly integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this approach is practical and often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also draws on mindfulness practices that teach present-moment awareness and stress management skills, which can complement work on mood and anxiety symptoms. Additionally, Gestalt-influenced work supports greater self-awareness and understanding of how present relationships and patterns affect daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kimberly works collaboratively with each client to explore which methods feel most useful based on the client s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Kimberly is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals without the need to travel, helping clients fit therapy into busy or changing lives.
